Basking in a crystal blue waterfall,
A soft, delicate breeze caresses me.
As beautiful moments begin to crawl,
Nature serenades me; I'm filled with glee.
And clear liquid tickles all of my toes,
I feel; one with the universe and whole.
Sadness and chaos are no longer foes,
Because peace now lives in my soul.
I've fall head over heels for mother earth,
She has enriched my life in many ways.
I must acknowledge her value and worth,
And treat her better the rest of my days.
I ponder on life and Spring’s arrival;
Also, I embrace nature's revival.
In the dawn, when the setting sun scattered it's colors
The moon sprinkled him with glitters:
And for the first time she saw him in the gleaming moonlight...
In his eyes she lost herself,
Her heart skipped a beat,
And she hushed herself,
She fall head over heels in love with him...
See me not caring anymore
see me walking out the door
you've hurt me for the last time
and I'm tired of you trying to
mess with my mind, so see me
not caring anymore, see me
see me walking out the door...
Someday somebody will find me
and fall head over heels in love
with me, somebody who will
appreciate me for me...
I thought you were the one now
I know I was wrong but oh well it
wasn't the first time, it won't be the
last time, ‘cuz I know I'm not always
a very good judge of character but
someday maybe I will find my soul
mate and live happily ever after until
then I just have to believe someday
somebody will find me and LOVE
ME FOR ME…
It's unbelievable how many times
I've been played the fool but I guess
that's how it goes when you think
everybody's has a heart of gold but
I'm tired of being used and played the
fool so you are the last one from this
moment on until I know my soul
mate finally comes along...
Yeah 'cuz I just gotta keep believing
someday, somebody will find me and
LOVE ME FOR ME, LOVE ME FOR
ME...THE REAL ME.
Before I fall head over heels,
I ask the Lord, please show me what's real,
He knows the sensitivity of my soul,
He also knows when I love I don't let go,
If a freak thing happens, and I must leave,
He's answering my prayers, because he's protecting me,
He will take me away beyond my control,
And later what's revealed will open my eyes to know,
He covers my heart when danger is near,
And he's allowed me to speak pass the fear,
When the wind beats against me, he will block it with his hand,
Your not touching her! She's mine! You understand!,
My strength lies in him, and in case you didn't know,
He's erased my sins, and made me white as snow,
So you can compare social status all you want,
Because first and foremost, he's the man of my heart,
If intentions are bad, he'll let me see,
I will not rely on the world to see,
You can call me too sensitive, gullable, or naive,
Because my God will surprise you, it won't be me.
Waking from a sound sleep
stretching to the tip of their limbs,
The melody rises from the deep
awaiting that first warm swim;
Basking in the sunlight
that giggle just below the ground,
You hear it just out of sight
the secret of youth found
Just get on your feet and dance
fall head over heels hard,
Embrace that dangerous romance
play but never show your cards;
What could possibly go wrong?
Just another flower song.
If love was a forest
I tip toe the climb through its beating heart
There is lost love, the dry deaf leaves
Strewn ground high and spread thick with utility
And there is love yet felt
The young vigorous flora juicing on the branch or vine
Waiting to be plucked or forced fall head over heels
Onto it's destined prey
And there are rocks, dirt and the melange of mayhem
Where love trips and collides with mortal wonder
The unsuspecting hearts and whims of others
Where considerations can be aberrations
Sometimes forcing scrapes and cuts and wounds
That may never heal
Yet to walk through...
To stop at times and gaze along the way
To wander deep into impervious platitudes which lure and mesmerize
To lose the path, endure the anguish
Where light goes missing and no direction leads home
To survive despair, starvation and last rites
Only to be saved by an angel
Made of sunlight and magic elixir
Especially for, and only capable of being consumed by you
...is reason enough to press on.
(10/18/14)
As sure as the sun will rise each morn,
And the flowers of all hues will bloom,
So will love find you soon,
For there's no escaping love!
You may hide in the toil of the day
And cower behind the veil of the night,
You may try every which way you can
But love will surely find your way,
For there's no escaping love!
Sure as the stars shine in the heavens,
And the moon crowns the nightly sky,
So will love find you on the sly--
Bright eyes agleam in playful glance,
For there's no escaping love!
Sooner or later you'll be smitten,
Beseech or beg you'll be bitten,
And lo! fall head over heels
for a boor or one who heals,
For there's no escaping love!
So take love head on,
Learn her wanton ways,
Her teases and taunts;
Roll with the punches
any which way you can,
Duck and dodge,
There are no loose ends,
No leeway,
She's hard as a rock,
No, she's not soft clay,
Ah, Love! try as you may,
There's simply no escaping love!
For Justin Bordner "Love Justice" contest
You were my first,
First real boyfriend,
You meant everything to me,
I even introduced you to some of my family.
You were my first kiss,
And
That really made me,
Fall head over heels for you.
And now you leave me here,
Here in the dirt,
Wondering what I ever did to you,
To make you do this to me.
I am still waiting,
Waiting for you to take me back,
Back into your arms,
So you can hold me tight.
Your voice melts my heart
Your smile makes me giddy
Your eyes warm my soul
Your touch gives me goose bumps
And I fall head over heels for you.
"My plans fall head over heels
and flat on their face!"
By Susan J. Mills
let me make this clearer for you,
I never want to be,
a simple girl whose lost her way,
this is not (my) reality
let me make this better for you,
whatever shall you mean,
I never want to see your face,
in my life, eternity
let me make this happier for you,
i'm sure a woman will come along,
she'll fall head over heels,
and you'll just see another thong
let me have my fun,
as you have with me,
i'll break you to pieces,
cause I strive for eternity
